I think they're calling it their Big Time sale weekend...anyway, it uses Gabriel's <i>Big Time</i>, which in a way was a blatant commercial success, but I really hate it. I sat there saying to myself, "Not Gabriel too!" Does this sort of thing bug anyone else? Is it OK for some artists to 'sell out', but not others? It seems to be that way with me. Any other commercials come to mind? ...anyone ...anyone ...anyone

What's funny is, "Big Time" was a tongue-in-cheek stab at self-aggrandizement. So its use is ironic. I laugh.
